26 Sherman Avenue
This building has a substantial enforcement record over the last seven years, and our model predicts continuing maintenance failures over the next 12 months. Read the records below before you sign. Ask which issues were resolved, get repair commitments in writing, and inspect the unit yourself.
This building has 30 recorded HPD violations, at or below the Inwood average of 120.6.
This building's 94% risk is high in absolute terms; it still rates lower-risk here because buildings in Inwood generally score worse. The colour is relative to the neighborhood, the percentage is not.

What's in the 26 Sherman Avenue report
Is 26 Sherman Avenue rent-stabilized?
Rent stabilization caps how much your rent can rise and protects your right to renew. Here's how this building scores on the four signals that usually point to it.
Based on public NYC records. Not legal advice — verify with the DHCR (Division of Housing and Community Renewal) at apps.hcr.ny.gov.
Is 26 Sherman Avenue covered by Good Cause Eviction?
New York's Good Cause Eviction law (effective April 20, 2024) gives many market-rate tenants the right to renew their lease and challenge rent hikes above the annual local rent standard. It doesn't apply to every building.
- New construction. Built in 2021. Good Cause protections don't apply until 2051 (30 years after construction).
Good Cause also excludes condos & co-ops, subsidized/regulated housing, and units renting above 245% of Fair Market Rent — signals we can't always confirm from public data. Not legal advice. Learn more at nyc.gov or call 311 for the Tenant Helpline.
